What is causing this? Bloating and pills feel stuck

I started my lyme treatment 2.5 weeks ago. I'm taking:
Doxy - 100 mg in the AM, 200 mg in the PM
Azythromycin - 250mg per day
Plaquenil - 200 mg 2 x per day
VSL3 probiotic - 3 per day
Vitamin C - 3 grams per day
Serrapeptase - 2 capsules twice/day
Cryptolepis
Pinella
Diflucan - 100 mg on M, W & F
Flagyl - once on Fri., twice on Sat.
Vitamin D3, 2 kinds of magnesium, Ribos... and I think that's it

I eat a super clean diet. No sugar, gluten, dairy, soy, legumes, tree nuts, none of the gluten cross reactives, no alcohol, plenty of grass fed gelatin, grass fed beef, organic chicken, organic veggies/fruit, etc. I drink lemon water everyday and drink half my body weight in water, and I do epsom salt foot baths 4-5 times per week.

I've had sweet potatoes almost every night for the past week and I've felt bloated. I wasn't sure if it was the sweet potatoes. Tonight we had turkey and sweet potatoes. I didn't eat anything else and now, 4 hours after dinner, I'm still bloated and miserable. I look like I'm 6 months pregnant. I just took my probiotic and I feel like the capsules are stuck in my throat... almost like heartburn, but there's no pain.

What could this be?

Thank you, Girlie. I was wondering about yeast as well, but I was thinking with the diflucan and VSL3 that shouldn't be an issue this soon. Maybe it is though. Then, I just thought this morning that maybe I'm drinking too much lemon water and it's causing reflux, but that wouldn't explain after dinner bloating. Of those options, I'm hoping it's a herx.

Thank you, cd3764! That does make a lot of sense about the sweet potatoes. I'm allergic to shellfish and have a bunch of food intolerances, so it wouldn't be unusual. Thanks for the link!

I had lunch about 40 minutes ago... organic ground turkey burgers and cauliflower "rice". Now I'm bloated again, not as bad as last night, but definitely bloated. This didn't used to happen. I've been eating turkey burgers and cauliflower rice for months.

So it's probably yeast? I read about Now Candida Support, but it has walnut shells in it and I'm avoiding tree nuts. Are there any other remedies that work really well that are dairy, soy, egg, gluten/grain, corn, tree nut free?

Based on the threads that have been posted, the bloating can definitely be from candida. Sweet potatoes are a starch and become sugar.

In the threads when Pirouette chimes in, I believe (and I could be wrong) that she said that Diflucan would not get rid of (or wouldn't be the best treatment for) yeast in the gut. She recommends the Pure Nystatin Powder. Searching for her screen name and Nystatin should bring up the discussions.

One thing that caught my eye though was you "no egg". Difficulty swallowing can be the result of eating something you are allergic to. You can have inflammation in your esophagus. For some people with egg allergy (and its one of the most common), there can be a cross reaction with chicken. You might want to take the chicken out for a little while and see if the swollen feeling in your through goes away. Turkey tends to be the meat that is least reactive.
